I spent the weekend in Charlotte and the initial reason I went was to see The Explorers Club perform. If you ever read my blog you will know that this is not the first time I have seen them, in fact I have lost count of how many times I have seen them!
There is something very unique about this band that I really like and they are only getting better with time. It seems when I hear their music I get transported back to the 1960’s sounds of Herb Alpert and the Beach Boys. They have a way of melting all these vibes into a unique mix of sounds that work perfectly in 2012. Mark Linett, who mixed The Beach Boys’ “SMiLE” for Capitol Records was responsible for the mix on the up-coming release “Grand Hotel.” You can hear the perfection in the mix on the pre-release tracks.
This band has just started a tour so I would encourage you to check their web site to see if they will be in your area. They are not to be missed! There is also a new album of music coming in February. I have heard some of the tracks and they are damn good! I know radiomargaritaville is playing some of these tracks right now so tune in and listen for them.
I wished the band would have played longer but on this night there were three different acts so I guess I had to settle for what I got! I can’t wait ’till the next time I get to see another performance from these guys. I hope it is soon.
